It was a 45-minute phone interview and it was disheartening a few minutes in. The Human Resources Director was very condescending. I absolutely understand the aspect of grilling a candidate to find out how much experience they have and what they can bring to the company but, to ridicule my background and education because I did not understand a question is unprofessional. The interview was definitely a clear indication of company culture. When it comes to interviewing candidates, a few friendly gestures go a long way. The best candidates have employment options so your company should strive to present itself as a fun and supportive place to work.
